Hmm šŸ¤” all of my cables are $15-25 from Amazon. Mainly theyā€™re labeled as 6N OFC or something.

But recently I got to try something ā€œpure silverā€. Somebody was selling this used French X-Symphony cable for $20 on eBay so I grabbed it.

Iā€™ll tell ya this. I use it on my M1060C(planar) and it might of provided maybe a 1-3 extra reverbs on some piano keys or guitar plucks, and thatā€™s if I was really trying to be picky.

Iā€™m so glad šŸ˜ƒ I havenā€™t been missing out on anything. Love ā¤ļø them Amazon cables.

I don't want to just shit all over "soundbetta" and mock people who go in for it, but you can buy real things with money.

Yeah man theyā€™re real. Love affordable quality. Cheap Amazon cables are amazing šŸ¤©.

Thereā€™s more choices now that thereā€™s custom wrapped cables produced for the masses from over seas.

Isnā€™t it weird how you like Custom wrapped cables that cost $50-120 for no perceived sound quality yet you would call it ā€œsound bettaā€ for people that are willing to spend THE SAME AMOUNT of $$ for perceived quality?

If youā€™re really for NO SOUND quality in cables, then thereā€™s no point in paying some American $$ to wrap the same $ cables from overseas.

Too many people in this sub in promote these expensive cables from companies like Periaptcables, and then absolutely sh1ts on anyone who would spend the same $$ if did it for perceived sound quality.

Probably the best investment as far as improving your listening experience is reefer, although there too...is the High Times centerfold really worth more than good ol' Reggie?

Hey man. I used to have an all silver system for a bit - tonearm wire, interconnects, and speaker cable. There was definitely a change in the sound. It sounded exactly as you would expect. Very clear and airy in the top end. Unfortunately it also had a bit of a "sheen" that always bugged me. I eventually sold it all and went back to Blue Jeans. When I did the change was also very apparent. Night and day actually. It was an interesting venture but cost a lot of money and I ultimately couldn't justify keeping it. Silver definitely sounds different if you have a system that can resolve it.

Totally agree. Just wouldnā€™t pay for the msrp $200-400 these X Symphonyā€™s probably were.

But now I know if I ever come across another amazing deal like these pure silvers, Iā€™d probably get it. šŸ˜‹
